• Abstract: Protein representation learning is critical in various tasks in biology, such as drug design and protein structure or function prediction, which has primarily benefited from protein language models and graph neural networks. These models can capture intrinsic patterns from protein sequences and structures through masking and task-related losses. However, the learned protein representations are usually not well optimized, leading to performance degradation due to limited data, difficulty adapting to new tasks, etc. To address this, we propose a new \underline{d}eep \underline{m}anifold \underline{t}ransformation approach for universal \underline{p}rotein \underline{r}epresentation \underline{l}earning (DMTPRL). It employs manifold learning strategies to improve the quality and adaptability of the learned embeddings. Specifically, we apply a novel manifold learning loss during training based on the graph inter-node similarity. Our proposed DMTPRL method outperforms state-of-the-art baselines on diverse downstream tasks across popular datasets. This validates our approach for learning universal and robust protein representations. We promise to release the code after acceptance.

  In-context learning of large language models has proven to be a surprisingly effective method of learning a new task from only a few demonstrative examples. We develop approximation and generalization error bounds for a transformer composed of a deep neural network and one linear attention layer. We show that sufficiently trained transformers can achieve -- and even improve upon -- the minimax optimal estimation risk in context.

  This paper studies the performance of overfitted meta-learning under a linear regression model with Gaussian features. We find new and interesting properties that do not exist in single-task linear regression. Our analysis suggests that benign overfitting is more significant and easier to observe when the noise and the diversity/fluctuation of the ground truth of each training task are large.

We identify the relation between the sequential information in the protein language model and the structural information in the specially designed GNN model via a novel pseudo bi-level optimization scheme.

  This paper introduces a multi-scale graph construction of a protein -- HoloProt. The surface captures coarser details of the protein, while sequence as primary component and structure captures finer details. Our graph encoder then learns a multi-scale representation by allowing each level to integrate the encoding from level(s) below with the graph at that level.
